Important Deadlines: 

Regular Paper Submission: September 27, 2011 

Authors Notification (regular papers): November 21, 2011 

Final Regular Paper Submission and Registration: December 5, 2011 

Current developments show that in the near future the wide availability of
low cost, short range radio technology, along with 

advances in wireless networking, will enable wireless adhoc sensor networks
to become commonly deployed. In these networks, each 

node may be equipped with a variety of sensors, such as acoustic, seismic,
infrared, motion, biomedical and chemical sensors 

with higher level of information inference associated with identification,
embedded signal processing and networking of the 

data. This conference intends to be the meeting point of researchers and
practitioners share experience and ideas on innovative 

developments in any aspect of sensor networks, including Hardware of Sensor
Networks, Wireless Communication Protocols, Sensor 

Networks Software and Architectures, Wireless Information Networks, Data
Manipulation, Signal Processing, Localization and 

Object Tracking through Sensor Networks, Obstacles, Applications and Uses.

Papers describing original work are invited in any of the areas listed
below. Accepted papers, presented at the conference by 

one of the authors, will be published in the proceedings of SENSORNETS.
Acceptance will be based on quality, relevance and 

originality. There will be both oral and poster sessions.

Special sessions, dedicated to case-studies and commercial presentations, as
well as technical tutorials, dedicated to 

technical/scientific topics, are also envisaged: companies interested in
presenting their products/methodologies or researchers 

interested in presenting a demo or lecturing a tutorial are invited to
contact the conference secretariat.

CONFERENCE CHAIR

César Benavente-Peces, Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, Spain 

PROGRAM Co-CHAIRS

Marten van Sinderen, University of Twente / CTIT, Netherlands

Octavian Postolache, Institute of Telecommunications, Portugal 

KEYNOTE SPEAKERS

SENSORNETS 2012 will have several invited keynote speakers, who are
internationally recognized experts in their areas. Their 

names are not yet confirmed.

PUBLICATIONS

Authors should submit an original paper in English, carefully checked for
correct grammar and spelling, using the on-line 

submission procedure. The initial submission must have between 3 to 13 pages
otherwise it will be rejected without review. 

Please check the paper formats page so you may be aware of the accepted
paper page limits. 

The guidelines for paper formatting provided at the conference web ought to
be used for all submitted papers. The preferred 

submission format is the same as the camera-ready format. Please check and
carefully follow the instructions and templates 

provided. Each paper should clearly indicate the nature of its
technical/scientific contribution, and the problems, domains or 

environments to which it is applicable.

Papers that are out of the conference scope or contain any form of
plagiarism will be rejected without reviews. Please read 

INSTICC's ethical norms regarding plagiarism and self-plagiarism.
